The Sweetest sIrI In school.

"She's the sweetest girl in school"
exclaimed one young
miss to another. as they passed down the
street together. Edith is SO kind, and
gentle and unselfish, every one likes her.
And she has lovely golden hair and pref
ty eyes. Isn't it pity her complexion is
so bad; it spoils her looks. And then she
has such dreadful headaches"l The girls
skipped along, but it happened Edith's
mother had heard what they said. II
set her thinking. What could be done
for those headaches and the rough, mud.
dy complexion, that was such o trial to
her gentle daughter. She recalled what
she had read of DIR. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, and on the spur of
the moment she slipped into drug atore
and bought supply. Edith took 1t
faithfully, with the result that it cleared
her disordered blood, relieved the head
Aohes, made her skin soft, fair and rosey,
and now she is not only the Sweetest
girl IN school" but the most beautiful.

In Washington theimpresaion is strong
that Secretary Lamar can have the SUI
preme court vacancy il he desires it. 1t
is even said that the place has been
offered him and the object of his present
visit home is to consult with his friends
relative to the matter. The opinion has
been expressed by southern men at
Washington that the appointment will
auis Mr.. Lamar in every particular. How
Mr., Lamar will suit the appointment is
a rather important question which seems
to have been overlooked. He has made
q good secretary OF the interior and the
vest feels itself under obligations for his
able and sensible management of affairs
but there is a vast difference between
an executive position and judicial
position.

he has been. His definitions are
singulaily clear
All this reminds us of another die
tionary, bearing the printers date OF
1886, about which very little has been
said. 1t is a dictionary of the Sioux
language, giving the equivalents Of
some 5000 Sioux words in English. 1t
was prepared by Rev. John p. William
son, of Yankton agency, veteran mis-
eionasy among the Sioux and mar
whose life work is given up to the intel
lectual and religious training of an ex.
tensive band of Sioux. hIr. Williamson
has given to this task many years of
hard study and has placed in the hands
OF his red pupils text book
OF incompatible value. Mr.. Williamson's g
dictionary was placed in type by In
dian compositors and printed by Indian
printers, all the work having been ac-
complIshed ct the s'Iapi Oaye Press"
office at Yankton agency. We have long
been of the opinion that the author of
this work has too modestly hidden his
light under bushel. His achievement
is one before which the efforts of the
popular literary savants of civilization
shrink into insiRnifieance, Alone in his
isolated field, surrounded by crude peo-
pie, IN an unnotioed corner of the savage
world, he has wrought the foundation
upon which must rest the liberation rom
barbarism OF q race which through the
centuries of past has been treated with
only at the muzzle of the rife. AS q
civilizing influence this little book will
reach deeper into the heart and under
standing of the Sioux Indians than all
the argument of shotted cannon and
bristling panoply of armed coercion.
Mr.. Wiliiamsop's dictionary has never
been submitted to governmental experts
or given place in any official report.
Yet it is deserving OF more than this.

The Sioux Falls Press, possessed of o
rancorous penohant for criticising every
thing which tends to give Yankton pres-
sige, assHiis the diploma just granted
Edward 81. Pound, upon the allegation
that MIR. Pound was not student in
Yankton college at the time of his
graduation. The statement direct is--
The Press Is informed on good auth.
ority that for the two years last past
Mr.. Pound has been student at Brown
university at Providence, Rhode Island,
though he was formerly actively con.
nected with YanktoD college.
We do not believe the Press was 80
informed. III it was SO informed its
"good authority" could not have been
good. III it had the smallest desire
to avoid misrepresentation it
would have been sure Of it's
ground before risking the danger Of a
quagmire beneath. Mr.. Pounds colleg-
late course has been: Two years in
Yankton college; one year in Brown uni
versi.y; one year in Yankton college.
During his course he went away from
the Yankton institution one year and
returned and completed his course by
here adding year of study to two years
here previously acquired. This is The
practice, almost the rule, in colleges al
over the land. There is more of pure
malice than anything else in this refisc
tion upon the standing Of Dakota's fret
graduate. It ID not difficult to interpre
this motive.
